SATURDAY HERITAGE LANGUAGE PROGRAM

PRE-K - 8TH GRADE

ISLA’s heritage language program for native Spanish-speaking children provides an educational environment to explore the Spanish language and cultural heritage of Latino students. Our cost-free program includes literacy, science, art, and outdoor education. ISLA's immersion program aims to lessen the academic achievement gap between Latino and non-Latino students through high-quality instruction in Spanish.

Teachers use ISLA's curriculum for Pre-K through 8th grade students in addition to student-centered instruction. Teachers focus heavily on the individual needs of each student. Outdoor education and hands-on instruction are also key to the success of each class.
